To put an idiot mistake lightly, I had to replace my power steering pump shaft since the nut worked loose and the pulley was about to fly off the other day ago.
Last night, I put the pump back in the car and I didn't hear any metallic sounds from a freshly resealed pump or the sound of a PS pump that needed to be bled - but I had no power steering, I checked the reservoir for fluid being circulated and it was still.
I want to take the pump out again and double-check my work, but can I reuse the newly installed O-rings or should I order a new seal kit again? I think I might have gotten the cam ring/rotor assembly misaligned with the fluid passages in the pump.
